 * WP is obviously having issues with this update. How do I revert back to the most
   previous version? I can’t count the number of issues I’m having. Post and page
   editors are gone, even before classic editor was installed. Slower than a turtle.

 * The problems you are describing are symptomatic of not having the javascript 
   load properly. This is common after any update where the JS code changes. Basically,
   your browser or something is serving you up a mix of the old and the new code,
   instead of all the new code.
 * First, clear your browser cache.
 * Second, if you use something like Cloudflare on your site, clear the Cloudflare
   cache.
 * Third, if you have any caching plugins, clear them too.
 * Basically, clear any caches related to your site at all. And the browser cache
   twice, because browsers can be jerks about keeping their cache intact.

 * Classic editor is installed and activated. This is what my editor looks like 
   on three different sites, even after I disable classic editor: [https://topammunitionsites.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-12-09-18-at-02.10-PM.jpg](https://topammunitionsites.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Screen-Shot-12-09-18-at-02.10-PM.jpg)

 * Then you are actually missing Javascript on the site, or you have some kind of
   cache that you don’t know exists.

 * Sounds like maybe you have an incomplete upgrade, where some of the files are
   missing or something like that.
 * Visit the updates page, and hit the Reinstall button. That will try to update
   all the files.
 * If that fails, try doing a manual upgrade, and replacing the files with the latest
   versions of them directly.
